  1. Chapter 15 Graphics

  2. Motivations If you want to draw shapes such as a bar chart, a clock, or a stop sign, how do you do it?

  3. Objectives • To describe Java coordinate systems in a GUI component (§15.2). • To draw things using the methods in the Graphics class (§15.3). • To override the paintComponent method to draw things on a GUI component (§15.3). • To use a panel as a canvas to draw things (§15.3). • To draw strings, lines, rectangles, ovals, arcs, and polygons (§§15.4, 15.6-15.7). • To obtain font properties using FontMetrics and know how to center a message (§15.8). • To display an image in a GUI component (§15.11). • To develop reusable GUI components FigurePanel, MessagePanel, StillClock, and ImageViewer (§§15.5, 15.9, 15.10, 15.12).

  4. Java Coordinate System

  5. Each GUI Component Has its Own Coordinate System

  6. The Graphics Class You can draw strings, lines, rectangles, ovals, arcs, polygons, and polylines, using the methods in the Graphics class.

  7. paintComponent Example In order to draw things on a component, you need to define a class that extends JPanel and overrides its paintComponent method to specify what to draw. The first program in this chapter can be rewritten using paintComponent. TestPaintComponent Run

  8. Drawing Geometric Figures • Drawing Strings • Drawing Lines • Drawing Rectangles • Drawing Ovals • Drawing Arcs • Drawing Polygons

  9. Drawing Strings drawLine(int x1, int y1, int x2, int y2); drawString(String s, int x, int y);

  10. Drawing Rectangles drawRect(int x, int y, int w, int h); fillRect(int x, int y, int w, int h);

  11. Drawing Rounded Rectangles drawRoundRect(int x, int y, int w, int h, int aw, int ah); fillRoundRect(int x, int y, int w, int h, int aw, int ah);

  12. Drawing Ovals drawOval(int x, int y, int w, int h); fillOval(int x, int y, int w, int h);

  13. Case Study: The FigurePanel Class This example develops a useful class for displaying various figures. The class enables the user to set the figure type and specify whether the figure is filled, and displays the figure on a panel. FigurePanel

  14. Test FigurePanel This example develops a useful class for displaying various figures. The class enables the user to set the figure type and specify whether the figure is filled, and displays the figure on a panel. TestFigurePanel Run

  15. Drawing Arcs drawArc(int x, int y, int w, int h, int angle1, int angle2); fillArc(int x, int y, int w, int h, int angle1, int angle2); Angles are in degree

  16. Drawing Arcs Example DrawArcs Run

  17. Drawing Polygons and Polylines int[] x = {40, 70, 60, 45, 20}; int[] y = {20, 40, 80, 45, 60}; g.drawPolygon(x, y, x.length); g.drawPolyline(x, y, x.length);

  18. Drawing Polygons Using the Polygon Class Polygon polygon = new Polygon(); polygon.addPoint(40, 59); polygon.addPoint(40, 100); polygon.addPoint(10, 100); g.drawPolygon(polygon);

  19. Drawing Polygons Example DrawPolygon Run

  20. Centering Display Using the FontMetrics Class You can display a string at any location in a panel. Can you display it centered? To do so, you need to use the FontMetrics class to measure the exact width and height of the string for a particular font. A FontMetrics can measure the following attributes: • public int getAscent() • public int getDescent() • public int getLeading() • public int getHeight() • public int stringWidth(String str) getLeading() getHeight() getAscent() getDescent()

  21. The FontMetrics Class FontMetrics is an abstract class. To get a FontMetrics object for a specific font, use the following getFontMetrics methods defined in the Graphics class: ·  public FontMetrics getFontMetrics(Font f) Returns the font metrics of the specified font. ·  public FontMetrics getFontMetrics() Returns the font metrics of the current font.

  22. TestCenterMessage Run

  23. Case Study: MessagePanel This case study develops a useful class that displays a message in a panel. The class enables the user to set the location of the message, center the message, and move the message with the specified interval. TestMessagePanel Run MessagePanel

  24. Case Study: StillClock StillClock DisplayClock Run

  25. Drawing Clock Since there are sixty seconds in one minute, the angle for the second hand is second  (2/60) xEnd = xCenter + handLength  sin() yEnd = yCenter - handLength  cos()

  26. Drawing Clock, cont. xEnd = xCenter + handLength  sin() yEnd = yCenter - handLength  cos() The position of the minute hand is determined by the minute and second. The exact minute value combined with seconds is minute + second/60. For example, if the time is 3 minutes and 30 seconds. The total minutes are 3.5. Since there are sixty minutes in one hour, the angle for the minute hand is (minute + second/60)  (2/60)

  27. Drawing Clock, cont. xEnd = xCenter + handLength  sin() yEnd = yCenter - handLength  cos() Since one circle is divided into twelve hours, the angle for the hour hand is (hour + minute/60 + second/(60  60)))  (2/12)

  28. Displaying Image Icons You learned how to create image icons and display image icons in labels and buttons. For example, the following statements create an image icon and display it in a label: ImageIcon icon = new ImageIcon("image/us.gif"); JLabel jlblImage = new JLabel(imageIcon); An image icon displays a fixed-size image. To display an image in a flexible size, you need to use the java.awt.Image class. An image can be created from an image icon using the getImage() method as follows: Image image = imageIcon.getImage();

  29. Displaying Images Using a label as an area for displaying images is simple and convenient, but you don't have much control over how the image is displayed. A more flexible way to display images is to use the drawImage method of the Graphics class on a panel. Four versions of the drawImage method are shown here.

  30. Displaying Images Example This example gives the code that displays an image from image/us.gif. The file image/us.gif is under the class directory. The Image from the file is created in the program. The drawImage method displays the image to fill in the whole panel, as shown in the figure. DisplayImage Run

  31. Case Study: ImageViewer Class Displaying an image is a common task in Java programming. This case study develops a reusable component named ImageViewer that displays an image in a panel. The ImageViewer class contains the properties image, imageFilename, stretched, xCoordinate, and yCoordinate.

  32. ImageView Example This example gives an example that creates six images using the ImageViewer class. SixFlags Run
